What makes a sweater have such an important role is this actual part of the year. When chosen wisely it can take a role of an important part of a menswear outerwear attire. See our favorites below:

At the same time it comes with a beautifully arranged ombre effect as well as a pied de poule pattern throughout. It is 62% wool, 27% mohair, 11% nylon. (price $750 USD).

With its classic lines reminiscent of Parisian chic, both men's and women's Carvenpieces have easily made to the top of so many coveted lists these seasons. Label's stronghold seems to show the best in fall winter collections. Here is a navy mohair patterned winter sweater making it onto our top 10 list. The inner layer fabric is 58% superkid mohair, 37% polyamide, 5% wool. The outside fabric is actually 100% merino wool. (price $610 USD).

In 2013 with Donatella Versace's work with J.W. Anderson it seems Versus revival is now in full swing. Catching our eye was the label's mottled blue leopard print sweater. Made in Italy it is 100% viscose. (price $475 USD)

Trend setting Burbery has presented the hearts pattern for the first time back in January.

Saint Laurent fell under a lots of criticism, the commercial side of the new collections especially came under fire.

This Saint Laurent black striped oversize mohair sweater is 80% mohair, 20% nylon and made in Italy. ($890 USD)

Givenchy already known for its mixture of sportswear influenced elements comes up for the fall winter season with grey melange painted-stripe argyle wool sweater. That painted-stripe sells it udoubtedly. It is is 100% wool and made in Italy. (price $935 USD)
